around the four home basketball
games.

ADG'S SPONSOR
VITUS DANCE
The ADG’s are sponsoring the
first date dance of the new semes¬
ter, the St. Vitus Dance, this Satur¬
day, Feb. 25 in the Malibu Ball¬
room of the Del Mar Club.
The scheduled band for the dance
which will run from 9:00 p.m. to
1:00 a/m. will be the always popu¬
lar Honcho Kids.
Any organization or group who
will be having ten or more persons
attending, will receive a $.50 dis¬
count on all tickets. Drinks will be
served at the bar for $.85.
Tickets for the dance went on
sale Friday at the book store and
will continue throughout the
week;
NEW PATIO now graces the area just outside the Lair. Patio Bil¬
liards Company built the patio and installed coin-operated pool
tables, which will help finance Loyola's football program.
BORN YESTERDAY,
MARCH 3, 4, 9 &
Born Yesterday, the Broadway
hit, by Garson Kanin will open at
Loyola University of March 3rd. It
will be directed by Mr. Capbern
and acted out by the Del Rey Play¬
ers.
The story treats of the seemingly
never ending of corrupt officialdum
in the nation’s capital. However,
this time the never ending nefa¬
riousness is brought to a dead halt
by a dumb chorus girl, who man¬
ages to upset more than a Washing¬
tonian apple cart.
Matinee
Qn Saturday, March 4, the Del
Rey Players will give a special
Matinee at 2:00 in Strub Little
Theater. The proceeds from this
show will be given to the Com¬
mittee on Football to help* support
the young team. At this presenta¬
tion there will be no special rates
for students.
Mr. Capbern mentioned that stu¬
dents have complained about the
shortage of tickets to perform¬
ances, and stated that tickets in the
future will be even more difficult to
come by because the 150 students
in drama classes are now required
to attend all Del Rey Players prod¬
uctions.
Ticket Shortage
Mr. Capbern also pointed out that
tickets for the performances on the
9 and 10 will probably be difficult to
get because of the Basketball
games against UOP and Santa
Clara on the weekend of the 3 and
4. He suggested that all students in¬
terested in seeing the play on the
9th and 10th make reservations as
soon as possible;
The box office in Foley will open
on March 2 (Thursday) at 1:00 till
5:00 and will be open every school
day thereafter, for the duration of
the play.
The leads will be played by Terry
Slaven and Suzie Taylor.
The strong supporting roles will
be played by James Ferrier, Greg
Hayse, George Peterson, Ken Pe¬
ters and Steve Gorrey.
Also in the cast will be Jim Shea,
Mike Pasalaqua, Norman McGraw
and Veronica Wendell.
Spring Cleaning
A Month too Soon
Rosecrans Hall went into house
moving on a large scale last week,
with the clearing out of the entire
third floor.
The move came about when it
was discovered that there some for
ty nine vacancies in the hall.
In a meeting last Tuesday, Hall
Advisor Mike Grinder explained to
the residents the reasons behind
the move.
First, last year when a group
of Jesuits visited this campus,
there were no accomidations, so
they were put up at the Airport
Marina. Loyola footed the bill.
Later, it was discovered that
there were adequate accom¬
odations in Whelan Hall, only they
were spread out. Result, a major
move in Whelan.
This year, to prevent such a thing
recurring, the third floor of Rose¬
crans will be open to visitors. Also,
it will save the University money in
maintenance and maid service.
Artukovic Hits
Administration
In an interview last week, one
time candidate for the Academic
Council Rad Artukovic charged
ASLU President Mike Maloney with
a Credibility Gap in his adminis¬
tration. #
The basis of the charge given by
Artukovich in a speech in the Lair
last Monday is one of honesty and
consistency in the present adminis¬
tration.
During that speech, Artukovic
stated that Maloney's adminis¬
tration had lost the confidence of
the students. He claimed, however,
that it was his methods, not his ob¬
jectives which were at fault.
Freshman
Again, Maloney has expressed
concern for the welfare of the lower
classmen, yet he threatened to
have a freshman class officer re¬
moved from the ASLU Legisla¬
ture.
The story behind this incident in¬
volved the vandalism at Occidental
College last semester. The fresh¬
man, involved in the incident, de¬
clined to reveal others involved,
wherein, Maloney made his threat.
According to Artukovic, such action
shows immaturity on the part of a
student body president.
Fourth Point
Artukovic’s fourth point involves
fraternities. During the elections
last Maloney went to the frater¬
nities for support. Yet, since then,
there has been a tremendous lack
of communication on his part and it
seems as though he doesn't realize
that the big movers on the campus
are the fraternities.
He did, however, come to the aid
of the Delta Sigs in their contraver
sy with the administration last se¬
mester.
Turn About
Finally, Artukovic claims that
Maloney maintains that students as
well as faculty members have the
right to be consulted in University
matters, yet he has denied this
same right to his own adminis¬
tration.
According to Artukovic, “A stu¬
dent body president who is honest,
who is true to his position, need not
resort to unreputable tactics such
as these in the face of opposition to
his ideas.”
In face of all this, and Maloney’s
refusal to cooperate with him were
he elected, Artukovic had no re¬
course, but to resign from the Aca¬
demic Council Race.
After receiving exactly the same
number of votes in last Wednes¬
day’s election, George Sheridan
and Jude Troutman vied in a run¬
off last Friday for the student seat
on the University’s Academic
Council.
The final vote count had not been
taken when the Loyolan went to
press, but Sheridan had a slim 10
vote lead as of 2:30 p.m. Friday.
The Council is the primary pol¬
icy making body of the University.
Composed of 15 administrators and
seven faculty members, it discusses
and suggests policy changes in the
University. Their recommendations
must go to the president, who has
a veto power but normally accepts
the council’s decisions.
Both Mr. Sheridan and Mr. Trout¬
man felt that their job, if elected,
would be not only to relay student
opinion to the council, but also to
return council reaction to the stu¬
dent body.
Last Wednesday’s promary elec¬
tion saw three men garner the ma¬
jority of votes. Troutman and Sher¬
idan each collected 137 votes, while
Ted Mathews had 135.
It was the feeling, beforrr the
election, of Academic Vice-Presi¬
dent Rev. Thomas D. Terry, S.J.,
that the performance of a student
on the council would be crucial for
the first two years. He pointed out
that some topics discussed in ses¬
sion might be of no interest to a
student, but that there should be
at least something at each meeting
which would concern the students.
FOOTBALL RECRUITMENT
PARTY SET FOR FEB. 2t
The football department of Loy¬
ola athletics will sponsor a Re¬
cruitment Party in the Lair and
Presidents Lounge on the 26th of
February. The party will be held
from 2 p.m. till 8 p.m. It will
give all high school seniors inter¬
ested in attending Loyola and play¬
ing football here next year an op¬
portunity to see the school first
hand.
The coaching staff, the heads of
Admissions and Financial aids, the
Deans of the various colleges, the
faculty members, and the Belles
will attend.
The Belles will serve a Buffet
dinner to those attending.
Loyola Forum
The Loyola Forum will be
held in the Lair this Thursday,
February 23, from 11:30 a.m.
until 1:00 p.m. The topic for
discussion will be “Civil Dis¬
obedience” and all members of
the University Community are
invited to attend.
This is the third forum to be
held on compus this year, for
the purpose of giving students,
faculty, and administrators the
opportunity to express them¬
selves before the group.
